A Christmas Story, The Musical's Bumpus Hounds on the Trail of Turkey and Trouble

A fan of the popular holiday film comedy, "A Christmas Story," Broadway animal trainer Bill Berloni (Annie) was disappointed that the trouble-making Bumpus Hounds were not included in the original conception of A Christmas Story, The Musical. When he learned the production was interested in bringing in actual dogs for the Broadway run, Berloni was more than happy to lend a Tony-winning hand to the proceedings. Here, in this video from the producers, Berloni and crew give a peek at Bloodhounds Pete and Lily as they prepare to make their Broadway debuts as the turkey-stealing pooches out to spoil Christmas for The Old Man.
